Hi all,

I wanted to have two strings of text appear in the same row, but 1 will be positions to the left and the other to the right. Currently if you look at it in the editor (Frontpage/Dreamweaver) it looks fine, but as soon as I check in it **IE** both lines of text appear on the left, I’ve attached both CSS and HTML file to this thread.
